Ahhhh you guys derailed my thread, got it moved and renamed :/
I dont think you guys are understanding what im trying to get across, and are accusing me of alot of negative things.
Can you please point out where i wasnt suggesting but dictating how the team should make their mod?
Can you please point out where i said that ESF is unoriginal?
Im going to quote myself in hopes of clearing this big mess:
"edit: also just wanna let you guys know that what you are doing with the half life 1 engine is amazing!!!
ive come to realize after all of these years that mouse+keyboard is what you need to truly capture the feel of a DBZ fight.
theres nothing really else out there like what you guys have, and so far just from some vids and screens you guys seem to have
the best and most authentic DBZ game ever in the works (in the gameplay dept. at least)!!
seriously u dont get to control a dbz character the way you seem to be able to in ESF:final in any other game out there!
oldschool BFP or zeq 2 might be in the same ballpark but you guys are really taking this to a new level making a fun, rewarding, in-depth and challenging dbz game"
Some of you are a bit too over protective and give the feeling that you would protect the ESF team before ur own children
!
I was posting a game i happend to find a while back in hopes that even by just watching the trailer or checking out the screens the team would be inspired even if just a smidge and it would translate into a better ESF. (NOT THAT THERES ANYTHING WRONG WITH ESF AS OF NOW ITS JUST THAT NOTHING IS PERFECT AND THERES ALWAYS ROOM FOR IMPROVEMENT).
You guys might have mistook my defense of the arcade game as an attack to ESF and also my terminology, in my opinion theres a difference between a "
Game" that is being created by paid professionals within a certain time frame being made for profit, and a "
Modification" being made by a group of ppl that
can range from amatures to pros who are creating a modification of the Half Life 1 engine, on their own time and money for fans of DBZ for free.
Which also has no indication of the quality of the final product neither does being on a paid professional game dev team. Both the arcade game and ESF could suck once released even tho i seriously doubt it
Is it so bad to try to share something i found awesome to a group of people i find awesome in hopes of making them even more awesome?!?!?
Way to throw me under the bus Mkilbride, we started off on such a good note!
For the record ive seen every ESF video there is to see multiple times i dont get why u claim what you do. i also know there wont be any DBGT content in the mod that does not mean that dbgt cant influence any of the decisions the team makes about their mod.
Also if this has influenced anyone against me i do own a legit copy of HL1 and HL2, matter of fact i own all of the orange box legally, i just havent wasted my time to validate it on the forum when the mod isnt even out.
I could say a lot more of whats on my mind i just dont want this to get any worse then it already has >_<
Also this thread could have stayed on the main board if people understood what i meant from the start and didnt waste their time posting off topic.
